I don’t see her as delicate at all. She’s hard, and unfortunately, as resilient as plastic.

Looking Back is another iteration of Quench, same space, same gesture, with a different model… I often make the same painting again and again, trying to get it right, or even get it right again.

Yes! That’s it! I didn’t realize I was borrowing the gesture, at the time… But looking back at it now I can see it quite clearly. That’s one of the reasons I consider this part of My Susanna Series.

Quench. This painting borrowed a gesture from a favorite Susanna and the Elders painting of mine… Any guesses which one?

‘The most urgent need today, as the Columbia case shows, is to create a new social contract on boards of trustees, who have become too craven to be watchdogs and too self-interested to be trusted. ‘

Malone said Saturday that his campaign volunteers have heard concerns from thousands of voters over Musk’s work with the Trump administration to reshape the federal government, which he said has led to “benefits for veterans, retirees and students” being cut “so Elon Musk can get a tax cut.”

“Josh Parsons might be OK with that but I’m not,” Malone said. “On Tuesday, you’ll get to make the choice between more Musk, or Lancaster values.”

The Democrat who just flipped a very Trumpy seat in Pennsylvania’s Senate made opposition to Elon Musk front and center in his campaign.

It’s not just the Nazi salute that’s disturbing here. It’s the smirk and nod that follows, signalling to his audience that yeah, I just did a Nazi salute. They clearly believe they are untouchable.

There are a lot of paintings in this show. Which one is this? Also, what do you think Mark is doing with those numbers at work?

Encyclopædia Britannica will continue to use ‘Gulf of Mexico’ for a few reasons:

-We serve an international audience, a majority of which is outside the U.S.

-The Gulf of Mexico is an international body of water, and the U.S.’s authority to rename it is ambiguous.
